-experimental "modal mode" (or "vim mode") in broot.
See https://dystroy.org/broot/vim_mode/
Warning!
-DON'T activate this mode until you really tried broot. Broot isn't a text
editor and can't be confused with one. This mode may be more comfortable when
you constantly jump from vim to broot but only after you understood how broot
works.
This isn't really about a "vim mode". This is about a "modal mode" in which
single letter key shortcuts are possible because the input at the bottom isn't
always focused. You may devise single letter shortcuts without taking
inspiration in vim
You may be an avid vim user, as I am, and still prefer not to use modality in
broot. Starting in command mode means you have one more letter to type before
searching, because search is done in input mode. And broot is search oriented
and often used in very short sessions (less than 5 seconds from intent to
launch to being back in the shell in the right directory or editing the right
file in your favorite editor).
-fix mouse staying captured during external app execution - Fix#325
-fix handling of rules starting with '/' in the global gitignore - Fix#321
-alt-c now mapped to the new :copy_line verb which, when in tree, puts the
selected path in the clipboard and, when in text preview, puts the selected text
line in the clipboard - Fix#322
-it's possible to define verb execution patterns as arrays instead of simple
strings, to avoid having to escape quotes - Fix#319
-when sizes are displayed (eg on br -s), show size of root line and root
filesystem info
-modified size cache management makes some size computations faster
-sizes (and dates and counts) are progressively displayed
-optional icons, thanks to @asdf8dfafjk (@fiAtcBr on Miaou)
See https://dystroy.org/broot/icons

A better way to navigate directories.
-Get an overview of a directory, even a big one
-Find a directory then cd to it
-Never lose track of file hierarchy while you search
-Manipulate your files
-Manage files with panels
